Mah-Ze-Dahr Bakery

At the brick-and-mortar outpost of online bakery Mah-Ze-Dahr, financier-turned-baker Umber Ahmad is selling sweet offerings that harken back to the basics: good ol’ fashioned baked goods. The name, translated from Urdu, describes the magical essence that makes food delicious, and it’s easy to imagine Ahmad peppering this magic on her globally-inspired creations, like the light and lemony Heavenly Cheesecake, Scandinavian sweetbread, or brioche donuts. If it’s savory you’re craving, there are lunch-friendly items like spinach-and-feta hand pies and ratatouille galettes. Tables and plush couches in varying neutrals provide a distraction-free atmosphere to spend an afternoon enjoying one bite of flaky pastry at a time.
